About us

Having Chico by my side has always brought me joy, but it wasn’t always easy finding places that allowed dogs. That’s when I started exploring different types of food for Chico while we were away from home. I wanted to make sure he was getting the best nutrition, so I decided to try out high-quality human-grade foods.

My name is Jade Araújo and this is Chico.

I noticed a problem. Chico started gaining weight and became picky about the food he ate, even turning his nose up at quality dry dog food. This concerned me, and I knew I had to find a solution. I began researching and reading extensively about dog food, seeking advice from my trustworthy veterinarian and even consulting with local vets during our travels to Brazil.

Driven by my love for Chico and my curiosity to find the right food for him, I decided to create a website called Dog Food Focus.

I wanted to share my personal experiences, research, and the valuable advice I received from other dog owners and veterinarians.

It’s a place where dog owners like me can find helpful information about choosing the right food for our furry friends.

Through this journey, I have come to appreciate Chico’s patience and understanding. He has accepted me despite my shortcomings and has been my faithful companion through it all.

Together, we continue to explore and discover the best ways to keep him healthy and happy, no matter where our adventures take us.

Around a year ago, Chico experienced a painful injury when he tore a ligament in his thigh. It was a difficult time for both of us, and I could see how uncomfortable and unhappy he was. It breaks my heart whenever I think back to what we went through together.

Chico, being the good boy that he is, showed incredible resilience throughout his recovery. His bravery and strength inspired me, and I grew to love him even more dearly.


Austin’s author bio

Hello, and welcome to DogFoodFocus.com. My name is Austin Affor, a seasoned online marketing professional, and the proud owner of this website. But more than that, I share my life with an aging Rottweiler, Frisky, who

has taught me more about love and loyalty than any human ever could. My journey with Frisky began 12 years ago. He was just a pup then, full of energy and mischief. His eyes, a deep brown, held a world of curiosity and promise.

We’ve been inseparable ever since, and our bond has only grown stronger with each passing day. Over the years, Frisky has grown from a playful pup into a dignified old soul. His once jet-black coat is now sprinkled with grey, and his eyes hold the wisdom of the years.

But his spirit remains unbroken. His tail still wags with the enthusiasm of a puppy when I walk through the door, and his loyalty and love for me have never wavered.

Living with Frisky has taught me the true meaning of friendship. He has been there for me through the highs and lows, always offering a comforting presence and a listening ear. His unwavering loyalty and unconditional love are a constant reminder of what’s truly important in life.

As Frisky ages, I am reminded of the fleeting nature of time. Each moment with him is precious, and I cherish them all. His slower pace has taught me to appreciate the simple moments and find joy in the present.

This website, DogFoodFocus.com, is a tribute to Frisky and our incredible journey. It’s a collection of our memories, adventures, and lessons learned. It’s a testament to our love and bond, which continues to grow stronger with each passing day.

But DogFoodFocus.com is more than just a personal tribute. It’s a resource for dog owners everywhere who want to provide the best nutrition for their furry friends. With my experience in online marketing, shaped by learning from top industry experts and attending numerous conferences, I’ve curated a selection of affiliate products that I believe in. My judgement is not swayed by the affiliate income, and every product featured here is one I would happily recommend to Frisky.

Thank you for joining us on this journey. We hope our story will touch your heart and remind you to cherish the simple moments with your loved ones, whether they have two legs or four. And we hope that the resources on DogFoodFocus.com will help you provide the best possible care for your furry friend.
